neighbors with the king

Chapter 13
The reason why she hesitated was that she wanted to embroider more at home to subsidize her family.

In the end, the desire for yams still overshadowed the idea of ​​embroidery.

"You guys go, we're here at home." Su Zhongren persuaded his daughter when he saw her struggling after eating.I'm full at noon today, and he is such a precious thing, and he has plenty of strength.

"Mother's embroidery is still fine." Lian Jinjuanmei also persuaded her.

"Oh." Su Qingyun happily agreed.

"Auntie, if you are tired, you must rest more." Su Qingqing reminded, "Uncle supervises."

"With Uncle here, don't worry." Su Zhongren knew that she was concerned about Jin Juanmei's body, so he immediately agreed.

The five brothers and sisters took all the back baskets and baskets at home, found out the shovel and sickle, and then started up the mountain.

Most of the laborers in the village have gone to work, and those who stay are children, women and the elderly. No one is surprised to see the brothers and sisters of the Su family.

Not to mention the impoverished Su family, even families with a better life in the village also go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables to supplement.

This time Su Qingshan took everyone up the mountain on a different path, and Su Qingqing was pleasantly surprised to find that the fields were full of purslane.This thing is the same as mother-in-law, but it is an antibiotic in wild vegetables.

Moreover, the leaves and stems of purslane are thick, which is more suitable for cooking.

"Why are these wild vegetables not eaten?" Qingqing asked everyone, pointing at the horse-tooth vegetables.

"This wild vegetable is not tasty, it will numb the mouth." Su Qingyun pulled her and said.

"We took advantage again. This kind of wild vegetable is a delicacy. I have a way to make it not numb, and I guarantee that you will not be able to eat enough." Qingqing said with a smile.

Everyone had a full meal at noon, and it was a delicious full meal. Su Qingjian and the others did not doubt Su Qingqing's words.

"Really. Then let's dig now." Su Qingyun was about to go there in a hurry. There were bowed heads everywhere in the village of horse teeth vegetables, and we could dig a lot in one day.

"Don't worry, we can dig when we get up early in the morning. Our first task now is to go up the mountain and have a look." Su Qingqing stopped her and said with a smile.

"Yes, we can't run away. Let's dig together in the morning." Su Qingfeng nodded in agreement.

When they saw the yam vines at the foot of the mountain, Su Qingjian and Su Qingshan were not calm again, especially when Su Qingyun knew that the delicious food for lunch was this thing that no one usually looked at, so he immediately rushed over.

"I won't dig today. Anyway, we are the only ones in the village who eat it. The yams won't run away. I want to go up the mountain to see if there are any good things?" Su Qingqing was the most calm.

"Are you still going up the mountain?" Su Qingqing couldn't move her eyes from looking at the yam.

"There are still yams at home, and if we dig them back, we won't be able to eat them all." Su Qingqing dragged her up.

"Up the mountain." Su Qingjian took the lead.

Su Qingshan and Su Qingfeng also looked at the two girls.

She was the only one who was reluctant, and Su Qingyun followed behind the team embarrassingly.

At the middle of the mountain, Su Qingqing and Su Qingyun were protected in the middle of the team, and several boys still protected them both.

Not to mention, Su Qingqing found something good to eat when she reached the small halfway up the mountain. The mushrooms under the big tree dazzled her.

Don't you eat delicious wild mushrooms?Su Qingqing wondered, the ancients couldn't be so stupid, could they?
"Qingqing, these things must not be eaten." Seeing Su Qingqing put wild mushrooms into the basket, Su Qingshan hurried over and threw the mushrooms out of the basket. "The village has eaten people to death."

That's the way it is, no wonder no one picks such a delicious thing here.Mushrooms have been delicious since ancient times, but unfortunately not many people know about them.

It seems that the people in the village have proved with their lives that this food is not edible.Yes, even in modern times with advanced technology, some people die by mistakenly eating poisonous mushrooms.

"Don't worry, not all mushrooms are poisonous. Non-toxic mushrooms are the most delicious in the world. I know both poisonous and non-toxic ones. Those like this are non-toxic and edible." Su Qingqing explained.

"But..." Su Qingshan was still worried. He heard that a family in the next village ate mushrooms, and none of them survived.

"I won't joke about the lives of my family." Su Qingqing comforted them with a smile.

Seeing her confident appearance and thinking of her amazing master, Su Qingshan and Su Qingjian looked at each other, and finally nodded in agreement.

The work of picking mushrooms is not tiring. Besides, the mushrooms on the mountain have never been picked, and they are everywhere.

Under her guidance, Su Qingshan and the others started picking carefully. It didn't take long for them to pick two baskets, and the baskets brought by Su Qingqing and Su Qingyun were also full.

"We went over there to see the bamboo forest and then went back." Because Su Qingjian didn't allow her to go deep, Su Qingqing made a small request.

"What are you doing in the bamboo forest?" Su Qingfeng asked in surprise.

"I want to dig some bamboo shoots and go back to eat." Su Qingqing replied, her eyes kept looking into the bamboo forest.

"What's delicious about bamboo shoots? They are sour and hard to eat. People will eat them only when there is nothing to eat." Su Qingfeng said unhappily.

"I can make it, it won't taste bad." Su Qingqing still said with a smile.

"Qingqing wants to eat, what are you talking about?" Su Qingshan patted him and reprimanded him.

"I was afraid that she would be tired." Su Qingfeng quickly explained, for fear that Qingqing would get angry.

"Let's go, I can go back earlier." Su Qingyun looked at the sky and said, she was in a hurry to go back to cook.

"Hurry up." Su Qingjian also said. "Qingqing, what are you picking those seeds for?" Seeing Su Qingqing struggling alone, he hurried over to help.

"Cousin, take off your outer shirt and give it to me." Su Qingqing looked at him with a smile.

What are you doing undressing?Su Qingshan and others all looked at him.

But it wasn't cold to walk, so Su Qingjian took off the outer shirt and handed it to her.

Su Qingqing put the star anise, fennel and other seasonings she picked into the shirt and wrapped it up.

No one knew what she wanted these things for, but no one asked.

Arriving at the bamboo forest, it was exactly as Qingqing had imagined, there were a lot of bamboo shoots inside.Under her command, the three Su Qingshan brothers dug and filled two more baskets.

Well, almost all the pans and baskets I brought were used up, and Su Qingyun was still thinking about the yams he saw.

Su Qingqing was speechless, this girl has already seen a lot of yams on the mountain, why is she so nervous.

But this cousin couldn't resist, the five brothers and sisters still dug up a few more long yams before going back.

"You brought these back when you went up the mountain?" On the way back, Aunt Zhao asked in panic when she saw the things in their back baskets. "Have you all forgotten that the former village ate dead people?"
